Toothache......advice greatly appreciated!
I have been suffering severe toothache for the last week whilst undergoing some dental treatment and to be honest I'm struggling with the pain.
I'm literally immune to otc pain killers now and would really appreciate any suggestions to help relieve the pain.
I have a loose back molar that has formed an abcess at its root but my dentist says it is not necessary to extract the tooth as it will settle when the penicillin kicks in.
I'm still waiting.......
I have tried salt water swigging, coconut oil pulling and just about everything I can think of and the only thing that has helped is smoking my favourite green herb but I cannot do that all day unfortunately! Tried clove oil too.....to no avail.
Humourous replies are welcome too as I enjoy a laugh but this is a serious plea for help as the pain has become ridiculous!

Tooth pain can be no "laughing matter".
I had infection around a tooth to such a degree while having root canal even the pain killer wasn't effective.
Never in my life have I experienced such pain.
After the 2nd attempt I surrendered and had her yank it out.
By no means suggesting that for you ... but happy to offer a smile (as long as it doesn't hurt too much) ...
